Florian can't get a fast enough stab from his parry position though, so Brennus can get out of his range by stepping backwards while disengaging.

Yeah, I'm fairly certain there is no basis for the assumption that Brennus 'has no options' other than the fact that his attack is apparently slow and easy to counter, which are interesting points to make on the flip side to an attack you've called 'covering distance fast' and 'high momentum'

The thing is, anyone could fight by simply googling someone's attack until they found the closest professional name for it, and then finding the counter and just saying 'my character performs -this-' 

That's my problem with this so far, that and the slightly unfair manipulations of what I'm posting, and the lack of detail.

Hell, I find this whole thing pointless, if I was playing Brennus to character he would never have accepted any of this, right now he'd probably drop his sword and just beat the shit out of Florian hand to hand.

The fact that my character has a sword as a backup means he in IC knows how to use it, but I'm still learning sword-play (and for the most part see it as pretentious and stupid, I could easily kill an average swordsman in real life with a spear, so what's the point of it.)
